Can CCTV be used to check employees' arrival times in a three-shift system, and can work effectiveness and quality be monitored under quality control (work with persons with disabilities)?

ANSWER

CCTV should be used for the purposes for which it was introduced. Monitoring employee effectiveness and quality of work, as well as employees' working time, does not fall within the purposes of visual monitoring provided for in the Labour Code, namely: ensuring employee safety, protecting property, production control, or keeping confidential information secret where its disclosure could harm the employer. It is worth noting, however, that a certain aspect of work control may arise within production control, understood as monitoring the process of creating a specific product, output, etc. (if visual monitoring was introduced for that purpose).
